lyrics

Sleepless rains, carry me away to somewhere beautiful
Somewhere lost
I see mirages of my former self,
And you’re still here
I remember the sky, I remember the enchanted nights
Lost in a moment of fantasy
I saw you shine in the blackest night
I saw your light when I couldn’t see mine

I haven’t seen you in days or has it been months,
Maybe years but I’m doing fine,
I’m married to misery, living aimlessly,
Expecting something, awaiting no one

We used to be a force to be reckoned with
Now in my dreams, they wish it was me death had traded with

I still see you in the trees, I still see you in the fields,
I still see you in the river where the devil took his steal
I still see you in my dreams, where you keep the kingdom keys,
I still see you in my dreams

Magic died in the river
Love died in my empty arms
Hope died when I couldn’t save you
I can’t stand with us worlds apart

I wish that I was dead instead, then maybe you wouldn’t be in my head
For all the love that we saw grow, I’d give it all just to have you home
